Career satisfaction is an important issue that directly affects a person's productivity and quality of life. There are many determinants, which are all likely play a role in career satisfaction. The role of these determinants have been the subject of many studies; no single determinant seem to outweigh the others, especially since personal expectations regarding one's job cannot be objectively measured. While personal expectations are subject to change over time, continuous research is warranted to evaluate the job and workplace factors that are associated with low satisfaction and burnout, and can then be remedied through new programs and job redesign. Investigating determinants of career satisfaction is an important means for academic institutions not only to achieve better performance outcomes, but to improve the quality of working life.
